It's something...

I tried to pick a cool, unique layout, at least one that's different from Philo's. Strangely, it seems, she's got the best layout there is.

I take the name of my blog from Belle & Sebastian's "The Boy With the Arab Strap".

It's something to speak of the way you are feeling,
To crowds there assembled, do you ever feel you have gone too far?
Everyone suffers in silence, a burden.
The man who drives mini-cabs down in old Compton,
The asian man, with his love-hate affiar, with his racist clientelle.

Everyone's got problems, even if they don't talk about it. But, really, it's something to talk about it. Why stay silent when there's something wrong? Being quiet about it doesn't make it go away. I can understand sitting back and watching for a while, but, if it's still not getting fixed, and it's bothering you, say something about it.
